Anybody know of any headers that will clear or be slightly modifyed to clear a 4x4 5 speed with a v8 or what i have to do to make a set clear? Im putting an awd 5 speed frame together and wondering what headers i should order. Also i have done the torsion bar delete coilover conversion so that has gained me a lot of room without the torsion bars in the way.

V8, How much tire are you going to run? The reason I ask is that Headman makes some the race guys use that exit near or under the front cab mount depending on where the motor is placed. I ran Sthal headers on my v8 truck years ago that did the same thing but the truck was lowered and small front tires. Might want to look at block hugger ones also but you would have to deal with the exhaust and prop shaft.

V*,
You won't/might not get the exhaust down the drivers side inside the frame rail. I would really look at the Headman headers. I wonder what the LS guys are using on the V8 swapped trucks?

Because of the gas tank? I forgot to mention that I'm running a custom gas tank from a company called code 504 in the back of the frame like a blazer. I'll see what headman has to offer.

I found transdapt pn# 44063 but after reading the reviews on summit it doesnt seem extremely well engineered ill probably have to do some fabbing to make it work right but it may be my only option. Oh well lol.
